DEFENDANT WAS CONVICTED OF ASSAULT ON A PEACE OFFICER AND ASSAULT SECOND; THE ASSAULT SECOND CONVICTION WAS REVERSED BECAUSE (1) ASSAULT SECOND IS AN INCLUSORY CONCURRENT COUNT OF ASSAULT ON A PEACE OFFICER, AND (2) ASSAULT SECOND IS A LESSER INCLUDED OFFENSE OF ASSAULT ON A PEACE OFFICER (FOURTH DEPT).

The Fourth Department reversed the assault second conviction because assault second is an inclusory concurrent count of assault on a peace officer:

… [T]he conviction of assault in the second degree cannot stand. … [T]his Court has previously determined that assault in the second degree “is an inclusory concurrent count of assault on a [peace] officer” … . Moreover, as charged here, assault in the second degree “is a lesser included offense of assault on a [peace] officer” … . As a result, that part of the judgment convicting defendant of assault in the second degree must be reversed and count 4 of the indictment dismissed … . People v Engles, 2025 NY Slip Op 06412, Fourth Dept 11-21-25
